    advisor, 05 Jul 2008It seems that the camera is quite disappointing here but do... moreit is very disappointing as SE doesn't seem to see that this unnecessary grouping of function is what killing their profits. Unlike Nokia which puts everything that is possible to a phone be it a music or camera, SE on the other hand tend to really cater only to a specific audience when they have actually placed a great camera in a music phone in the past. I really hope they stop doing this since its very possible to have a great camera on a dedicated music phone! Its such a waste of money and effort for them especially now that samsung is releasing phones that have best of both worlds at better prices.

          It seems that the camera is quite disappointing here but don't forget it is a "Walkman" series phone after all so we can't blame or expect much from SE. Well, in order to maximize the effectiveness of its music, you may try listening it through a bluetooth headset whereby the sound will be pretty awesome.

            I wonder if this device supports unicode. I'm not sure if it can display Japanese characters.

              sony is an audiovisual expert and i beleive that to keep its name it should have on every phone a excellent camera and a perfect music department.
              i wish that one day sonyericsson will release a phone that combines the w and c series goddies in one phone.
              we are fed up to choose between camera and a music phone. lets have all in one

                Anonymous, 04 Jul 2008im not gone a get one. with no good camera why would anyone... moreIf they make the camera good it would be too hot and this might decrease their sales of other handsets. By making the camera 'bad' it still remains possible to consider more SE handsets before purchase - my opinion, perhaps someone else can provide further insight.

                  im not gone a get one. with no good camera why would anyone wont one, if i wont to listen to music i just take out my ipod which is easier to carry around with my phone than carrying around my phone with a digital camera because my phone can't take good pictures. sony messed up big time and are gone a lose a lot of sales, if the camera was good it would be the hottest phone on the market by far.

                    to SE-fan:

                    SE walkman series? Definitely I dont like the sound quality of this phone peaking the fact that it has only mono sound!!! It should have been 3D stereo sound like the nokia powerful music phones, no fuss listening...

Never gonna sound as good as a decent set of wired headphones but no bluetooth headset will.
